Why aim for double 14
double 14 (28) is a comfortable, even finish: miss the double and you are left on 14, which halves cleanly to double 7. That makes it a friendly number to leave, even if it is less iconic than 32 or 40.
If you miss D14
Slip inside the wire to the single 14 and you are left on 14 — finish on double 7. Miss outside the wire and you stay on 28 for your next dart, so you never lose the double.
Tips for hitting D14
- Aim just below the wire so a dart that drops still lands in the double, not above it in the single.
- Throw at the same pace as your scoring darts — don't "guide" the finish.
- Know your miss: a slipped D14 leaves 14, so you already know your next dart before you throw.
